Biscotti and Coffee Bedside

Biscotti and Coffee Bedside

A Poem by Kelly Scheppers

Biscotti and Coffee Bedside

 

 

 

wrapped in his love

on this Sunday afternoon

lying near the rib

of a man

groomed in a guise

of utter perfection…

a gentleman of a man

wearing a five o’clock shadow

and the inventory of a stare…

 

with biscotti and coffee  bedside.

It's Sunday, so you're in that relaxed state of the night before.
He gets up and makes you coffee. That is a gentleman.

...the best kind! Thank you, Paul...good to meet you!
Beautifully crafted.

I especially like "The inventory of a stare" and the meanings it suggests. I could sit an think on that all day. And "lying near the rib of a man" is biblical! :-) very, very clever. I wish I had come up with that line.

Look forward to reading more of your work.

You are such a dear for saying such a thing...thank you, Eve! x
Those sweet Sunday afternoons when cuddling with someone you love was deliciously decadent and then you throw in biscotti and coffee. Hmmmmm!!

...thank you most kindly, Curt!
Oh Kelly! Both visual and mood is so intense I can even smell the coffee! But now I feel almost like a voyeur… so I’ll simply say this is gorgeous poetry, grab a biscotti and steal away. ;-)

Lol, thank you, Lisa...I don't think I could have resisted the coffee or biscotti myself!
Heavy sigh! What a decadently romantic scene you transported us to! Hints at what might have happened and what might still be, but does so elegantly. Wonderful....I remember your line, "the inventory of a stare" from another of your poems....and it is fantastic. Lydi**
